Group boiler not heating properly...

Post by krus »

I've been on the phone with tech support at Chris' Coffee, and they are sending me a new boiler temp sensor probe to try to fix the problem. My machine won't brew any higher than 198F even with the offset set to 0F, and the temp set at 97C. They suspect also that it could be in the control board, but could only tell if a series of tests are performed there, and I am not enthusiastic about being without the machine for a month. I will post of further developments.

Sorry to heat about this, Kurt.
Is there any other tests that you can run at home?

The only tests that I have done are temp measurements with a Fluke, and of all the dozens of tests, none of them were within 2C of the programmed temp. They are sending me a new sensor to see if that is the problem. If it's not then I guess it will be going into the shop for further diagnosis.

Problem fixed. New boiler probe sensor is all it needed.
